It's definitely okay to accompany you for decades?A mole on the man's feet is diagnosed with malignant melanoma

It is definitely okay to follow the mole for decades! This is a sentence that dermatologists can often hear in outpatient clinics. Professor Xu Suling, Department of Dermatology, Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University School of Medicine, recently visited a 35 -year -old male patient. He was diagnosed with malignant melanoma because of a special mole on his left foot.

From a young age, the patient's left toe side had a mole that was smaller than sesame. The original mole had not changed much, it was not painful or itchy. But in the past six months, the mole has become uneasy, the range has gradually expanded, and ulcers, water seepage, and often have symptoms of pain and itching. At the beginning, the patient did not take it to heart, thinking that he had followed his decades of moles, and it was definitely no problem. It wasn't until the size of the mole to half of the nail caps and the symptoms of discomfort often occurred, which affected life that he thought of going to the hospital to see.

"At first glance, I felt bad when I saw this mole. Its border was unclear, and there were ulcers on the surface." Professor Xu Suling said that the combination of rapid increase and growing on the feet. An ordinary mole. After the skin mirror examination, the preliminary judgment is a malignant melanoma, which must attract great attention. The pathological diagnosis results of postoperative surgery are also diagnosed. This is a malignant melanoma lesion. Fortunately, it has not yet reached the late stage.

"1%of the pigment mole on our body is congenital, and 99%of them are acquired, that is, acquired nature. The congenital mole is born or within 2 weeks of birth. The probability of evil changes is related to the age of the mole and the age of the patient. "Director Wang Song, the dermatology department of Ningda Affiliated Hospital, introduced that the probability of congenital moles is greatly exceeded. Essence Beast skin moles with a diameter of more than 20 cm can reach 30%of the probability of evil change. Moles like this. If conditions permit, it is recommended to deal with surgery before the age of 6 to 12.

Patients often say that this is a mole since childhood, and has grown on themselves for decades, and it must be no problem. However, if it grows at the top of the head and face, the end of the limbs, the waist, and the mucous membrane, the probability of malignant changes is relatively higher.

"If the mole on the body suddenly increases, the color is suddenly deepened, or the colorful changes occur, there are symptoms of pain, there are ulcers, exudation, and bleeding, it must attract sufficient attention. In addition, if there is a small 'surrounding mole' surrounding 'small' 'small' 'on the surroundings'' Satellite moles', or the edges when they grow up, have become irregular, are jagged, and they must be highly doubted whether the possibility of evil changes. "Xu Suling introduced that suspecting that there is a problem with the mole, first go to the dermatology department of a regular hospital, Doing a dermatologist can be used preliminary screening. If necessary, the pathology of biopsy can be diagnosed. Do not easily freeze with laser and even use a mole to remove moles and remove moles to avoid missing the best treatment time and cause a big mistake.
